Excerpt from Forests of the Garden State
New Jersey's forests, a critical component of the State's natural resources, have been rich in history from colonial settlement to the present. In the Nation's most densely populated State, forests cover 45 percent of New Jersey's land mass and differ greatly in character from the coastal plain to the highlands region. These highly diverse forests provide globally significant biological communities, habitat for wildlife, forestry products, water quality, and opportunities for recreational. Although population growth and expansion into the rural environment have placed increased pressure on the State's forests, management professionals with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's Forest Service continue to protect this valuable natural resource and provide sound stewardship to ensure that the broad range of benefits derived from these forests will be available to future generations.
